Overview
If you've known broken relationships . . . If you've ever felt like you
don't measure up . . . If you've suspected something inside you
might be missing or flawed . . . This book is for you. Kim Gaines
Eckert, psychologist and counselor, has spent years helping women
with a variety of life issues, from self-esteem and body image to
developing healthy relationships and healing from the past. At the
heart of their struggle, she believes, is not the desire to be
perfect, but the desire to be whole. And wholeness, she is
convinced, ultimately comes only from God. In this book Kim invites
you into her conversations with women. You'll discover you are not
alone in your struggles, and you'll learn from her practical and
proven guidance for growth and change. And because growth is always
more powerful in community, each chapter includes questions for you
to explore in a small group. Let Kim Gaines Eckert show how God can
mend your brokenness and help you become a whole, healthy
person--the woman he created you to be.

Book Bargains Review
|

While self-help books fill the bookshelves of many Christian
bookstores, Stronger Than You Think by author Kim Gaines Eckert
is one that every woman should be sure to pick up and actually read!
The author touches on subjects near and dear to a woman's heart and
leads you to see how your brokenness and imperfection can lead you right
to the heart of God.
As a psychologist and counselor, Gaines definitely has the
credentials, yet she writes in a very readable manner, drawing from her
teaching and counseling practice. She also dots her book with
personal stories of her own.
This is a great book for women who suffer from low self-esteem and lack
of confidence...and for the men who love them.
